As it's now 2012, that means it is official Paramount Pictures' 100th Anniversary, as they officially began back in 1912. We featured their brand new logo a few weeks ago, but now they've launched an app for the iPad, called simply Paramount100, that takes a look back at their magnificent history, awards and accolades, and more. It's a pretty impressive app, as we've seen a lot of them popping up recently. They've got features like "100 Years in Pictures", with the ability to watch some of the films "now", their Academy Awards, and a Studio Tour. Give it at a look if you have an iPad, another cool app for film geeks / cinephiles.

From the official description: The year 2012 marks Paramount Pictures’ 100th Anniversary and this 100 Years of Movie Magic app is an exploration of the studio’s incredibly rich and storied history. From Paramount’s modest beginning in 1912 with Queen Elizabeth to Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol (in theaters now!), the app provides a fresh and innovative opportunity to experience your favorite films by flipping through never-before-seen photos, watching memorable film clips, and listening to timeless music scores. This unique keepsake also includes an overview of Paramount’s story, a Studio Tour and a specially designed Scene it? game – all of which you can share with your friends and family via Facebook. How fun!

We love cool apps like this, so we'll keep featuring any good movie ones that get released. Sound good?
